How are the Jolie-Pitts making it work? By being surprisingly down-to-earth – if glamorous – parents. At home in California, Jolie drives Maddox to school herself; Pitt sometimes commutes to his production-company offices on his motorcycle. Apart from family outings to the beach and the local toy store, they tend to savor a homebody lifestyle.
That is, when they're actually home. In the Dominican Republic, where the couple spent three days before going to Haiti on Jan. 13, Pitt played Mr. Mom while Jolie filmed scenes for the upcoming drama The Good Shepherd.
At their Santo Domingo hotel, Pitt took Maddox and Zahara for joyrides in the glass elevators and let Maddox stroll a treadmill in the hotel gym, where their mutual affection was obvious. "Maddox is very talkative around [Pitt]," says an observer. "When he came into the health club, they were holding hands, and they were holding hands when they left."
